Democrats began responding to the “Phase 3” stimulus package introduced on Thursday by Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.), with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) criticizing the bill’s focus on helping corporations.
“We are beginning to review Senator McConnell’s proposal and on first reading, it is not at all pro-worker and instead puts corporations way ahead of workers,” Pelosi and Schumer said in a joint statement.
